Before 01 January 2021, it was compulsory for spouses wishing to divorce in France to travel to France which could prove complicated especially with the current travel restriction.
The procedure is now essentially a written one where spouses can be represented by a lawyer.

Modern methods of communication will be used to secure identity checks.
The practice is available to answer all your questions.
